L D Buffet

This was the first restaurant we ate at after arriving in Colorado. The outside of the building looks like it may have been a Mexican restaurant at one time, but it is now a Chinese buffet. When we walked in, I thought it might be good. There were four long food bars in the center and then the back wall had a dessert table as well as a sushi bar. The food looked pretty good. There were labels on most things, but then I noticed not all the labels matched up. I have to be careful because I am allergic to shellfish and they definitely had a lot of dishes with seafood. I loaded up my plate with chicken items. I was quite disappointed to find that some of the chicken was lukewarm and other pieces were very cool. I told my husband to be careful in what he was eating. He said that his oysters were not cold. I told him I noticed that they did have times listed next to the food labels and I thought that probably showed when the food was brought out. He commented that as long as it wasn't out for four hours that we would be okay. As I was eating, I looked around the restaurant and noticed that the waitstaff were putting the dirty dishes on a cart which sat out for all to see. They also had dirty rags just hanging over the counter. They used those to wipe down tables. I didn't have a good feeling about the place, so I didn't eat much. It has been a day since we ate there and we did not get sick, so that is good. I definitely will not be eating here again. The waitstaff was nice and attentive, but the food temperature and cleanliness are a big concern for me.

My husband, Jeff, and I are full-time RVers. My favorite part of traveling is eating our.
We enjoy watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, so as we travel, we try to check out as many of the restaurants that appear on that show as possible.
We have two greyhounds, Scout and Joey, and they look forward to the doggy bags.
